Engagement can increase patient willingness to take medications

Abstract

DEAR EDITOR, Patients are often unduly afraid of rare or non‐existent but perceived risks of starting a new medication.1 Developing and testing specific approaches to overcome such fears may help improve patients' treatment outcomes. We hypothesized that engaging patients in thinking about how to present reassuring information could be used to modify patients' perceptions of treatment. To test this, we queried subjects about their willingness to take ustekinumab, a drug that blocks interleukin (IL)‐23 signaling, for psoriasis.
